A Novel Subsp. T1 Strain from Cow's Milk: Homeostatic and Antibacterial Activity against ESBL-Producing .

The global emergence of antibiotic-resistant zooanthroponotic strains, producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL-E) and persisting in the intestines of farm animals, has now led to the development of a pandemic of extra-intestinal infectious diseases in humans. The search for innovative probiotic microorganisms that eliminate ESBL-E from the intestines of humans and animals is relevant. Previously, we received three isolates of bifidobacteria: from milk of a calved cow (BLLT1), feces of a newborn calf (BLLT2) and feces of a three-year-old child who received fresh milk from this calved cow (BLLT3).

Anti- Defence and Intestinal Homeostatic Maintenance In Vitro of a Consortium Containing 3872 and s 7247 Strains in Human, Porcine, and Chicken Enterocytes.

strain 3872 (LF3872) was originally isolated from the breast milk of a healthy woman during lactation and the breastfeeding of a child. strain 7247 (LS7247) was isolated at the same time from the intestines and reproductive system of a healthy woman. The genomes of these strains contain genes responsible for the production of peptidoglycan-degrading enzymes and factors that increase the permeability of the outer membrane of Gram-negative pathogens.

Protective Properties of S-layer Protein 2 from 2029 against Infections.

Previously, the protective role of the S-layer protein 2 (Slp2) of the vaginal 2029 (LC2029) strain against foodborne pathogens , serovar Enteritidis, and O157:H was demonstrated. We demonstrate the new roles of the Slp2-positive LC2029 strain and soluble Slp2 against infections. We show that LC2029 bacteria can adhere to the surface of the cervical epithelial HeLa cells, prevent their contact with , and block yeast transition to a pathogenic hyphal form.

7247 Strain: Probiotic Properties and Anti- Effect with Prebiotics.

The 7247 (LS7247) strain, originally isolated from a healthy woman's intestines and reproductive system, has been studied for its probiotic potential, particularly against Enteritidis (SE) and Typhimurium (ST) as well as its potential use in synbiotics. LS7247 showed high tolerance to gastric and intestinal stress and effectively adhered to human and animal enterocyte monolayers, essential for realizing its probiotic properties. LS7247 showed high anti- activity.

The Extracellular Vesicles Containing Inorganic Polyphosphate of Yeast upon Growth on Hexadecane.

The cell wall of yeast grown on presence of hexadecane as a sole carbon source undergoes structural and functional changes including the formation of specific supramolecular complexes-canals. The canals contain specific polysaccharides and enzymes that provide primary oxidization of alkanes. In addition, inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) was identified in canals.

Whole-Genome Sequencing and Biotechnological Potential Assessment of Two Bacterial Strains Isolated from Poultry Farms in Belgorod, Russia.

Bacteria, designated as A1.1 and A1.2, were isolated from poultry waste based on the ability to form ammonia on LB nutrient medium.

3872 That Produces Class III Bacteriocin Forms Co-Aggregates with the Antibiotic-Resistant Strains and Induces Their Lethal Damage.

LF3872 was isolated from the milk of a healthy lactating and breastfeeding woman. Earlier, the genome of LF3872 was sequenced, and a gene encoding unique bacteriocin was discovered. We have shown here that the LF3872 strain produces a novel thermolabile class III bacteriolysin (BLF3872), exhibiting antimicrobial activity against antibiotic-resistant strains.

Strain 3872: Antibacterial and Immunoregulatory Properties and Synergy with Prebiotics against Socially Significant Antibiotic-Resistant Infections of Animals and Humans.

strain 3872 (LF3872) was originally isolated from the breast milk of a healthy woman during lactation and the breastfeeding of a child. The high-quality genome sequencing of LF3872 was performed, and a gene encoding a unique bacteriocin was discovered. It was established that the bacteriocin produced by LF3872 (BLF3872) belongs to the family of cell-wall-degrading proteins that cause cell lysis.

Capture of Essential Trace Elements and Phosphate Accumulation as a Basis for the Antimicrobial Activity of a New Ultramicrobacterium- Str. F2E.

Microbial interactions play an important role in natural habitat. The long-term coevolution of various species leads to the adaptation of certain types of microorganisms as well as to the formation of a wide variety of interactions such as competitive, antagonistic, pathogenic and parasitic relationships. The aim of this work is a comprehensive study of a new ultramicrobacterium str.

Synthetic Oligopeptides Mimicking γ-Core Regions of Cysteine-Rich Peptides of Possess Antimicrobial Activity against Human and Plant Pathogens.

Plant cysteine-rich peptides (CRPs) represent a diverse group of molecules involved in different aspects of plant physiology. Antimicrobial peptides, which directly suppress the growth of pathogens, are regarded as promising templates for the development of next-generation pharmaceuticals and ecologically friendly plant disease control agents. Their oligopeptide fragments are even more promising because of their low production costs.

S-layer protein 2 of vaginal Lactobacillus crispatus 2029 enhances growth, differentiation, VEGF production and barrier functions in intestinal epithelial cell line Caco-2.

We have previously demonstrated the ability of the human vaginal strain Lactobacillus crispatus 2029 (LC2029) for strong adhesion to cervicovaginal epithelial cells, expression of the surface layer protein 2 (Slp2), and antagonistic activity against urogenital pathogens. Slp2 forms regular two-dimensional structure around the LC2029 cells,which is secreted into the medium and inhibits intestinal pathogen-induced activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 in the human intestinal Caco-2 cells. Here, we elucidated the effects of soluble Slp2 on adhesion of proteobacteria pathogens inducing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), such as Escherichia coli ATCC E 2348/69, E.

Characterization of Soil Bacteria with Potential to Degrade Benzoate and Antagonistic to Fungal and Bacterial Phytopathogens.

The intensive development of agriculture leads to the depletion of land and a decrease in crop yields and in plant resistances to diseases. A large number of fertilizers and pesticides are currently used to solve these problems. Chemicals can enter the soil and penetrate into the groundwater and agricultural plants.

A Blue-Purple Pigment-Producing Bacterium Isolated from the Vezelka River in the City of Belgorod.

Violacein is a biotechnologically significant secondary metabolite due to its antibacterial, antifungal, and other properties. Isolation, research, and identification of violacein producing strains are of interest for the development of biotechnological processes, in order to enhance the biosynthesis of this compound. The purpose of the present work was to study the properties of a newly isolated bacterium capable of synthesizing blue-purple pigment.

A cytological characterization of the parasitic action of ultramicrobacteria NF1 and NF3 of the genus Kaistia on chemoorganotrophic and phototrophic bacteria.

Two strains (NF1 and NF3) of free-living chemoorganotrophic bacteria have been isolated from multiyear oil slime and Pedilanthus tithymaloides rhizosphere and ascribed to the genus Kaistia of the class Alphaproteobacteria on the basis of the nucleotide sequences of 16S rRNA gene and phenotypic characteristics. These strains can be assigned to ultramicrobacteria as their populations are represented by two subpopulations: (1) ultrasmall cells, on average 200-300 nm in diameter and <0.1 microm(3) in volume, of up to 60% of the total number of cells in a population, and (2) cells 400-800 nm in diameter and 0.
